But the jazz version of
Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an
Exhibition/' from which three
movements will be performed,
is a regular 'gas' that even
Mussorgsky would've boogied
to. Senior lead alto sax man,
Fred McElderry, will be fea-tured.
And speaking of soloists,
jazzers from every section will
get the spotlight, including
Richie Johnson on tenor sax, Lee
.Warner on drums, Kurt thris-
"tensen on trumpet, and John
Mutch on trombone.
